Something big is happening, as Reddit seems to have purged literally every NSFW sub they know. Reason is always "unmoderated" despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.

Thats actually very good advertisement for Lemmy done by reddit. Very good news tbh.

Well now is the time to step up and moderate those orphaned porn sites.

This is hilarious. There's no other reason to have Reddit

You mean all my reddit porn is now gone?

Fuck it. They all should migrate to Lemmy. There was some hard to find porn that I haven't saved yet...

Did they? I just looked and my porn multi is still full of everything I expect it to be.

I see they're following the Tumblr model:

  • Get bought at overinflated values.
  • Ban all NSFW content.
  • Users leave and seek NSFW content elsewhere.
  • Valuation plummets.
  • "Actually, moderating NSFW is really hard you guys. We're just going to try best efforts moderation only."
  • Sell at near total loss.
  • There is still NSFW content on the platform, and the policy is used as a cudgel against LGBTQ accounts.

I don't think this is really tinfoil hat. I'd like to see they explain how it just happened to remove that subset and not other things.

Reddit is run by big business and greedy corporate America. When it went public for the stock price to make even more money then it did before, I left that place.

According to a post from our Admin, in the small instance I'm in there has been a sudden influx of new users (about 200) in the last day or so (as new users have to be approved, somebody is getting cramps on their approve finger).

(Guess Anarchism and Piracy could technically count as NSFW in most workplaces, especially the latter)

Good news to me. I can watch reddit and twitter self destruct from the comfort of the Fediverse. Welcome home, fellow refugees.

They would rather hop into another corpo boat instead of choosing an instance.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 17 hours ago

Some would, some would rather go to Lemmy.

I welcome all the porn y'all want to post ....
